How can the Bahamas be American? The text says "British"!?


Travel Info
In my heart, I know I am from the Bahamas, and I know it is American, but when I read any passage from a geography book fr an encyclopedai, my eyes are on fire since the text says, "Ha! Ha! The Bahamas are British, rebel boy!" I am also an American, but I do not wish to be charged with treason because I have intimate knowledge of the Bahamas. I am willing to follow the law, but I feel perplexed when the phrase "part of the Commonwelath" includes the Bahamas. iam not British and I know the Bahamas has nothing to do with England, but what am I compared with an encyclopedia. Many persons contribute to an encyclopedia and the persons who contributed the info of the Bahamas state the country to be part of the British Commonwealth. I do not mind any overlays since my religion was founded in England. Please help me before my goose is cooked. (No, I am not a memeber of the Anglican Church. I am a Unitarian.)

Travel Tips
Even the great United states were once a British colony,haven't you heared of the British empire the largest of its time.
But let answer your question,the Bahamas was also apart of the British system,and it gained independence from the British and is still is a member of the common wealth,because it shares a common history.
Good ,luck on your quest. Source(s): Read your history of the world.

General knowledge.
I have no idea how it is, but for all I know it is really beautiful there.
